How social media changed my life: Social media has made a great impact on my life. I have so much to be grateful for. It has made the world of beauty a little smaller and at grasp. Networking and making friends with my fellow artists is now easy. I get to be inspired everyday. Having my portfolio online has been both a free marketing tool and a motivation and confidence booster. I feel loved, and a part of an incredible community.
The first time I was featured on Modern Salon: I was so incredibly thrilled!!! It was years ago but I remember being just overcome with excitement. It is unbelievable every time my work gets shared. What a great feeling to be able to receive love and be the cause of good emotions, through something I've produced.
